The paladin asked, his voice calm and firm - maybe this is why he became the captain!
"The bloodline awakening ceremony requires a very complicated preparation process, and many different auxiliary materials must be prepared for different bloodlines. Even if we can return to the mage tower now, it will be difficult to assemble..."
Master Yiwen pondered for a while and then said:
"She is now in an awakening state, and her consciousness is passively accepting the spell inheritance contained in her blood. If we wake her up now, it is equivalent to interrupting her awakening process..."
"Priest Arne, please use the purification spell..."
"Wait a moment!"
John closed his eyes and said firmly.
After nearly ten years of companionship, how could he not know what his teammates were thinking?
However, he was interrupted before he finished speaking.
Everyone looked and saw that it was Druid Steve. He got up from sitting cross-legged and walked between the mage and priest with a walnut staff.
Wizards, priests and druids are trying to help a warlock!
Ha! The most representative spell casters are gathered together!
"I know an ancient barbaric ritual that can help her control the power of the silver dragon in her body, and the materials for the ritual are available on site..."
Under the gaze of everyone, Steve seemed a little calm and said:
"But it will take some time to take out the materials completely. I don't know if it will be late."
"You mean?!"
The two mages turned around and looked at the body of the red dragon.
"It is the [Original Dragon Hunting Ritual], which was used by the first mortals to obtain the power of the dragon. It is also the source of the first human dragon warlocks!"
Steve said quietly
"Isn't this ceremony supposed to be held before the dragon is slain? The dragon slayer himself has to preside over it!"
Evan asked
"No, you are talking about the now perfected [Dragon Hunting Ritual], which has been improved by generations of [Giant Beast Hunters]. Holding the ritual in advance can allow them to cause more damage to the target dragons.
harm"
Steve's tone did not change, and he turned to look at the dragon corpse
"The original [Original Dragon Hunting Ceremony] only requires the heart of a living dragon and a small amount of dragon blood. And I will preside over this ceremony, so there should be more than half a chance of success..."
His words caused the two mages to get into an argument, but the priest Arne was unable to help.
"So what's your decision, Captain John? I'm just offering another option."
Steve turned to the paladin again and asked.
John turned around with difficulty to look at Shatara lying on the ground, looking at the painful expression on her face.
The paladin stretched out his hand to the sleeping sorceress, but was blocked by the bursts of cold air coming from her body, leaving only a piece of frost on his hand.
Looking at the frost on his hands, the originally calm eyes on his stiff face moved.
"This master, please do it to me!"
His voice is like a rock that will always stand on the earth, firm and without regrets
"John!"
screamed the halfling.
"Have you decided?"
A sudden shadow completely covered the paladin sitting on the ground, and the muscular man Victor asked in an emotionless tone.
"Yes, I know what she would choose if it were her. As her captain, I should make the decision for her in this situation."
The paladin's tone was calm and emotionless, and finally he said in a decisive voice:
"No matter what the result is, I will be responsible for it!"
Victor stared at him in silence for nearly ten seconds, with his back to the dim sun so that no one could see his expression clearly.
“Haha! Not bad”
The muscular man's face, which was like a black pot under the shadow, suddenly revealed a white slit, which was his teeth!
Victor grinned and said:
"A real man dares to take responsibility for any decision he makes! I admit that you are a man!"
Doso didn't speak this time, he just took out his pipe and took a few puffs.
"We have read about this ritual in the book. It is indeed possible to alleviate this lady's current situation, and it can also allow external forces to intervene in the awakening state to help her stabilize the power of the silver dragon."
The two mages also ended their discussion, and Ivan said:
"We can help arrange the ceremony, but the bloodline awakening only lasts for half a magic hour, and taking out the dragon heart..."
It takes a long time to dig out the dragon's heart from the body of a giant dragon like a "big truck". Without the right tools, even with the help of magic, it will be almost impossible in half an hour!
It's a pity that they were interrupted before they finished speaking.
"Leave this to me, you can prepare the ceremony!"
Victor waved his hand and said, and then everyone remembered that this was a strong man who beheaded a giant dragon!
The mage and druid began to collect a small amount of dragon's blood and draw ritual runes on the ground.
The muscular man looked around and saw that Elf Ranger Filia had already fallen into meditation.
"General, can you lend me your weapon? Just one!"
Victor actually didn't remember Ernest's name, but that didn't stop him from borrowing a knife to slay the dragon.
"Of course, Your Excellency"
The Elf General pulled out the scimitar from his waist and handed it to Victor.
The muscular man took the scimitar and looked at it. The style of this knife was similar to Filia's, except that it had a light blue glow on it - it was probably a magic weapon, and it seemed to be of high quality.
But he didn't mind, he just walked towards the dragon's body with the knife.
He is not a real sword master. Sword masters in Faerûn cannot use magic weapons.
However, the profession of Juggernaut is very rare. Although many people have heard that its attack power is amazing, few people know the specifics. Therefore, Ernest did not remind Victor that it was a magic weapon.
The muscular man stood in front of the dragon corpse with a knife and closed his eyes. He was using his sense of perception to sense the location of the dragon's heart.
The dragon corpse was still lying on its stomach in the direction of crawling toward the seaside. Its broken neck was level with the cliff. One side of the dragon's wings was spread out, and its four legs lay weakly on the ground.
The posture is right!
The muscular man raised his sword and leaped high into the air. After several leaps in the sky, he raised his hand and swung two swords at the dragon corpse with the black-lighted scimitar——
[Cross cut]
As Victor landed, the dragon's body opened into four pieces like petals.
Astonishing heat and billowing blood steam emerged from the incision.
Near the center of the cross-shaped incision, a heart the size of a washbasin, still twitching slightly, leaked out!
The huge smell of blood filled the whole place, and everyone's eyes were attracted here!
And Ernest, who had been observing the muscular man since just now, was also stunned.
"Legendary Sword Master..."
The elf general murmured that he no longer doubted Victor's power.
The muscular man ignored everyone's gazes. After taking a breath, he walked straight to the dragon's heart, raised his knife and cut off all the blood vessels connected to it.
The hot dragon blood spurting out could only emit bursts of white smoke on his shiny black skin.
With dragon blood all over his body and shiny black skin, looking at the man with the dragon's heart approaching, Ivan was interrupted by a savage and fierce aura several times he cast spells (self-stop)
The smell of blood that hit their nostrils made the other two spell casters stop what they were doing.
It wasn't until the third casting that the high-level mage Yi Wen released the second-level spell [Levitation].
This spell acts on the dragon's heart, and slowly floats to the center of the ritual circle with the control of the mage...
